Default Exes and Zips

If you must search for games, demos, etc, then make sure your virus scanner is always up to date.

As I said before, I believe that the record, software and film industry are trying to destroy the P2P network by planting viruses and worms in small files, exes and zips. Just as they have paid certain companies to seed the network with fake files. I personally set my LW to filter out exes and zips and I ignore small files.

However, if you must go after exes and zips, and you must, then make sure your PC is well protected.
